This will be virtually indistinguishable from the $10 fake Thai kits on eBay:

I mean look at that abortion of a kit.

It is a football shirt, not a tuxedo. I've seen a lot worse and the new Chelsea one ( the dark blue) is excellent for me

How some people can look at these and say ours is worse defeats me.

Bob on. Ours is garish and I can see why a lot dislike it, but it's not even nearly the worst. Not even nearly. I think I've decided my future career, kit designer. Piece of piss, even a proper one must only take a few mins, some of this years look like the designer fell asleep on his keyboard whilst designing.

Ours is starting to look ok by comparison.

If THIS isn't a hoax it is an utter monstrosity.

Mind you, not unsurprisingly, so have Newcastle.

NEWCASTLE ALIENATE REMAINING FANS WITH NEW AWAY KIT

THE Newcastle United board has decided to alienate its few remaining fans with a new away kit that looks like a boiled sweet made from urine.

The kit was designed by lifelong Sunderland fan Tom Logan, who said he spent weeks searching for just the right shades of yellow.

He added: "I wanted something that said 'p*ss', but combined both the pale yellow of a poor person who drinks too much with the dark yellow of a person who buys rich food that they can't really afford."

The kit will go on sale next week, priced to meet the value for money expectations of gullible, colour-blind halfwits.

Meanwhile the board hopes its latest move will constitute the final straw so the club can finally be wound down and sold off at a car-boot sale in Whitley Bay.

Chairman Mike Ashley said: "I'll be honest, at this point we're so brassic we're accepting Nectar Points and handjobs just to make ends meet."

He added: "It's been tough - re-employing Keegan, absurdly expensive season tickets, Dennis Wise - but this should finally enable me to flatten St James's Park and use the land for raising goats."

Defender Steven Taylor, who modelled the strip, said: "This is possibly the biggest tit I've felt since joining Newcastle, and I spend most of the season being dumped on my arse while the opposition hoof the ball into the roof of the net."

Newcastle fan Martin Bishop added: "I've followed the Toon since Jackie Milburn but if I go around wearing that, people will automatically think I've just escaped from a parade that celebrates alternative lifestyles."

Yeah and they're missing a few classics too...Coventry's little brown number in the 70's for starters...

They did bring it back as a 125 anniversary, though just the colour not the dreadful design! http://www.retrofootballshirts.co.uk/bl ... -shirt.htm

However has anyone mentioned Hulls kit from 1992! http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/2984863.stm

Wolves did a kit with tyre marks all over it (sponsored by Goodyear, y'see)

Manchester United fans want their new rugby league-style kit scrapped before it goes on sale next month. The shirt has a 'V' across the front and has been accused of looking "too American".

Well now they can all go play for the area the club is actually from. Salford! Go join in with the Rugby players. Actually just thinking about it...maybe thats why Ronaldo left, he couldn't handled being tackled by some council flat bruisers

Errr. They're not actually from Salford. They're the other side of the Manchester Ship Canal in Trafford. Trafford hasn't had an RL side for some while now.
